I just looked at the results for the race; there were a lot of girls racing sport that I didn't recognize. Congrats, weimie! You had a good time!
I practiced the course thursday and friday and wasn't too crazy about it. I was a little dissapointed at the lack of technical aspects, though it did seem to become a bit more challenging as the week wore on, and the riders tore into it
Since we were pretty beat from a month of riding, I decided not to race the course. We were packing up our booth sat. evening when I heard that my friend from Austin, Kristen, got injured on the mountain cross -- she wound up breaking her tibia and fibula and ankle. We drove straight over to the ER in aspen saturday night and visited her. I didn't see the accident, but when I heard, I freaked out and started crying! I heard from different people terrifing things -- that she shattered both her legs. The thought of her alone in the hospital really scared me. Fortunately, it was just the one leg and she seems to be doing a lot better. The hospital did surgery pretty much immediately and were keeping her there through today.
